Originally posted by WorldTour: Originally posted by CRZYDRVR: As for realibility, they last just fine on the track, which is where they were meant to be used. Lets see this Camaro last 50 miles in traffic without overheating, loading up on fuel or generally being a pain to drive. Its just not doable. I applaud the work that they put in to the car, and if it makes stupid amounts of power, then thats cool, too.
But I dont see how they can call this a "street car" with a straight face. Street legal drags my ass ..... If this guy can drive it to work a few days a week and be comfortable, then I will shut up.
I don't mean any offense by this, but you sure don't know very much about Mike Moran. That same 95 Z28 was the first Street car in the 6's over 200mph, shortly after running those numbers he entered the car in the Hot Rod PowerTour and drove it across the country to prove that it was infact a street car. The car finished the tour without trouble. That car can probably be driven on the street all summer long without very many problem. Welcome to Detroit... As for 4 turbos being less stress on the engine, I would imagine that multiple turbos that spool sooner and more progressively will have less of a power spike.
You are right, I didnt know much about that guy. He must be a heck of a tuner to be able to drive it across country like that. Thanks for the info. I said I would shut up, so I will now

30 pounds isnt the same amount on any turbo. you can boost 30 pounds on a tiny ct26 and make 200whp on an mr2 or run 30 pounds on a t-88 and make 1000 horsepower on an mr2
